Get ready to have your taste buds transported to a whole new level of cheesecake heaven, my friends! We all know that cheesecake reigns supreme as the most iconic Shavuot delicacy, but this holiday, I decided to take things up a notch and introduce you to a divine creation—the Basque cheesecake. Brace yourself for a delightful journey that originated in the picturesque Basque Country of northern Spain, where creamy dreams are made. This cheesecake, also known as "tarta de queso" or "burnt cheesecake," is unlike anything you've ever tasted. Forget about the traditional New York-style cheesecake; this rustic beauty has stolen the show with its creamy texture and caramelized exterior that will have you weak in the knees. And here's the best part: no crust! That's right, we're simplifying the process without sacrificing an ounce of flavor. Just mix all the heavenly ingredients, pour the luscious batter into a parchment paper-lined cake pan, and voila! Your taste buds are in for a wild ride. But wait, my friends, it doesn't stop there. We're taking this tantalizing treat to new heights with an Israeli twist that will leave you begging for more. Prepare for a burst of orange blossom-infused goodness and the warm embrace of cardamom that will elevate this Basque cheesecake to new realms of indulgence. It's a fusion of cultures, a celebration of flavors, and an irresistible creation that will have you coming back for seconds, thirds, and maybe even fourths. So buckle up and get ready to dive into a cheesecake experience like no other. It's time to indulge in the magic of Basque cheesecake with a delightful Israeli twist. Get ready for a slice of pure bliss!

Hello! Not sure what kind of cheese I should use as "cream cheese" in France. Would that be Philadelphia? Many thanks!

Hello! I made this cake yesterday, this recipe is very easy to follow (having the amount of ingredients written in every steps made it very easy thanks!) , the most difficult thing in this recipe was to wait overnight ! I made it half of the amount in a 18cm round pan and it was perfect. In my case, 45min at 200C could get almost no color so I had to make it 220C with grill setting for last 10 min. I think it really depends on the ovens.

Hi! Your recipes are always amazing but this one was a fail :( First of all, it makes much more than a 9 inch cake pan. Even a 12 would have been tight. I ended up making a 9 and quite a few cocottes. Aslo, after just 45' at 400F the top was burnt to the point that it was unpleasant to eat. I know what a basque cheesecake should look like and I'm ok with burnt, but this was super over burnt. I think it would have been much better to bake it at say 180° and then just burn the top a bit with the broiler setting. This being said, still a big fan of yours - mistakes happen :)
